OCTOBER (Ekim,
eh-KEEM)
The
month begins with very good weather,
but the autumn rains usually begin
sometime in mid- or late October.
There
may also be freak snowstorms in Central
Anatolia, but overall this is
not too bad a month to travel in
Turkey.
The International
Istanbul Biennale art
exhibitions are on throughout the
month in Istanbul.
Republic
Day (Cumhuriyet Bayrami,
October 29), is
Turkey's most
important patriotic national holiday,
commemorating the proclamation
of the Turkish
Republic by Atatürk in
1923. Lots of parades and speeches. There's
a half-day holiday on October
28 in anticipation.
The
three-day holiday called Ramazan (or
Seker) Bayrami falls
in October in 2008 (dates). More...
